How much of   spring springs on me!
 
                     When March marches like a coy mistress,
                     bemuse what happens to these dry leaves
                     almost pounded, like disowned relatives,
                     when penury is writ large on their face,
                     April  advances in silken robes, all smiles,
                     I enjoy the soft and velvet foam of Dove
                     Cream soap in my bath tub of London flat,
                     lingering aroma still on my wet skin,
                     a lavender sari to keep up the tempo,
                     while my soothing  memory dates back
                     to Heathrow’s terminal three where a
                     a hot sip of Cappuccino with wavy
                     smokes elusive escape to nowhere,
                     a covey of doves on the elevated
                     car parking, enjoying the take off
                     and landing planes, perhaps,
                     I partake of the thrush and orange
                     necked white bird in their semi-chorus,
                     with the cuckoos, in their melody,
                     I bid farewell to those notes of lugubrious,
                     injustice and clever deception,
                     Away! Away ! You dark, dismal
                    wintry days! Unmooring me.
